I received an email today advertising LED lights for photography. The
temperature was supposedly adjustable from about 3,000 to 5,500 K. It
sounds interesting but I know nothing about how good it really is or
if the light has decided temperature spikes.

Panels designed for photography are obviously designed and balanced
specifically for that. LED stage lights, however, are designed to throw
large amounts of very pure colors (or mixes of primary colors). For
photography, they really suck. I just shot an event over the weekend
that was lit 100% with LED fixtures. I could get mostly usable images
when they cycled to white or mostly blue, but when they went green or
red the sensor went nuts and oversaturated. And unlike gelled
incandescents, you can't do anything in LR because when you try to
desaturate the red, the image goes all wonky because there is nothing
there besides the red.
